This is going to be hard. Personally, I think any novellas should also count as short stories, though that will be Life's call. Also, titles will need to be specific, so "The Bartender's Tale" will not count.

I'm okay with novellas being counted, go for it._________________I am a Star Wars fan. That doesn't mean that I hate or love Jar Jar.

The old SoloSound ones, Star Wars Book Report and another one I can't remember. I used to listen to Beyond the Films but I fell way behind._________________I am a Star Wars fan.

Time expiration in effect, game is open to new questions...and I shall pose the next one.

From the movies, how many named characters can you list that the Big Three (Han, Leia and Luke) killed?

I also have a tie-breaker question in mind if we need it._________________

Sorry I forgot to post a question lol. I didn't even realize that I won.

I think everyone named that Luke killed was done so tangentially, either by destroying the Death Star or removing Vader's mask. I suppose Boba Fett is debatable, since it could be argued either that the Sarlacc (and thus not Han) would presumably have killed Fett prior to Dark Empire's publication, or that Dark Empire established that Fett did not die in the Sarlacc after all; since it's movies only I just listed it based on the premise that in the film the intent was that Han Solo killed Fett, even if tangentially.

I'm sure there's a lot of named Imperials and Jabba's cronies that either Luke or Leia killed in destroying the Death Star or sail barge, respectively, but I don't remember their names and I suppose a few of them would be like Boba Fett in the sense that the EU may or may not have established their subsequent survival. Plus I'm sure there's characters like Barada that Luke probably hacked with his lightsaber and tossed into the Sarlacc but I dunno for a fact that he did so.

I'm wracking my brain trying to think of anyone killed by Han, Luke, or Leia in TESB but I can't think of anyone at all besides stormtroopers or snowtroopers and AT-AT drivers.

Re-watching the films, I realize I attributed a certain death to the wrong character! Leia aims the cannon on the sail barge at the deck, but Luke is the one that kicks the trigger.
